Warm Swedish coffee Swedish coffee strong scary

The coffee the Swedes drink is frighteningly strong, not only for the Chinese who are not used to the drink, but also for other Westerners outside northern Europe. It takes me half a year to drink about 500 grams of coffee, but it only takes them three times to make people who can't get used to it tremble. This is obviously related to the climate in northern Europe, with sunshine duration of no more than four hours for about eight months of the year. This also refers to the densely populated province of Stockholm in the south of Sweden. If you go to the famous Lapland region in the north, from the end of October, it will basically be a long night, waiting until April and May of the following year.

The polar night in northern Europe may be a romantic thing for many people. Such a polar night is romantic, of course, but only if you have a big house, handsome guys (for men, there must be beauties), a fireplace and, of course, a blazing fire in the fireplace. Otherwise, it would be a completely different matter. Every morning at 11 o'clock, the sun comes out, you just feel a little energetic to start a new day, while you do not notice, it goes down again, from three o'clock in the afternoon, into the night again. To work and study under such conditions, you must keep your spirits up with enough strong coffee to let you know that it is still daytime, not the time to sit in front of the fireplace and make love.

In Swedish supermarkets, the first thing you see as soon as you enter the door is the shelf selling coffee, which is piled up so high that it feels cold. Coffee is packed in a vacuum, tightly squeezed into a rectangle, about the size of an adult boy's slap, and it's really like a brick if it's not a bag of 450 to 500 grams-- except that it's shorter and lighter. There are about seven or eight major brands. I don't know much about the brands of coffee. "main" means that they make up the special colors of this chilling coffee wall. Swedes are very interesting to buy things, the same coffee, buy a bag of one price, three packets of a price, five bags is the same price, but if you take a bag of different kinds, the beautiful cashier will often be in trouble, because she does not know whether each is calculated at the price of three packs or one pack. But it is said that they will always ask for your advice at this time, that is to say, if you think it should be calculated at the price of three packs, she will not object. What a kind man.
